Aortic dissection is a prevalent cardiovascular pathology that curash water wipes 6x80 can have a fatal outcome.However, the mechanisms that trigger this disease and the mechanics of its progression are not fully understood.Computational models can help understand these issues, but they need a proper characterisation of the tissues.Therefore, we propose a methodology to obtain the dissection parameters of all layers in aortic tissue via the computational modelling of two different delamination tests: the peel and mixed tests.
Both experimental tests have been performed in specimens of porcine aorta, where the intima-media and media-adventitia interfaces, as well as the medial layer, were dissected.These two tests have been modelled using a cohesive zone formulation for the separating interface and a hyperelastic anisotropic material model via an implicit static analysis.The dissection properties of each interface have been calibrated by reproducing the force-displacement curves obtained in the experimental tests.The values of peak and mean force of farmhouse magnolia wreath the experiments were fitted with an error below 10%.
With this methodology, we intend to contribute to the development of reliable numerical tools for simulating aortic dissection and aortic aneurysm rupture.
